Book excerpt: This book is designed to be a technical reference for engineers and technicians who interpret well tests. For each case examined, it describes the most suitable interpretation methods, such as traditional methods, type curves, computer-generated type curves, and interpretation using derivatives. It cites the equations used to interpret results, while avoiding detailed mathematical discussions. Nevertheless, as numerous references are provided, those who wish to can trace the solutions back to their origins. The book also indicates the conditions under which different methods are useful, and is illustrated with a large number of figures and practical examples. The text shows how the interpretation of a well test varies according to the type of reservoir limits (e.g., faults, channels, secant faults, constant pressure limits, closed reservoir, etc.), the well reservoir configuration (e.g., partial penetration wells, inclined wells, artificially fractured wells, horizontal wells, injection wells, etc.), and the nature of more complex reservoirs (fissured reservoirs, two-layered reservoirs). It indicates which methods to use when the fluid in a well is a gas or a polyphasic fluid. Lastly, it deals with tests applied to multiple wells, including interference tests and pulse tests.Contents: Principle: 1. Principles of well testing. 2. Wellbore storage. 3. Skin.

Book Well Test Analysis for Fractured Reservoir Evaluation

Download or read book Well Test Analysis for Fractured Reservoir Evaluation written by G. Da Prat and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1990-11-19 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this book is to provide the reader with a basic understanding of the behaviour of fractured reservoirs, using evaluation techniques based on processing pressure and flow-rate data resulting from production testing.It covers the fundamental reservoir engineering principles involved in the analysis of fluid flow through fractured reservoirs, the application of existing models to field cases, and the evaluation and description of reservoirs, based on processed data from pressure and production tests. The author also discusses production decline analysis, the understanding of which is a key factor influencing completion or abandonment of a well or even a field.The theoretical concepts are presented as clearly and simply as possible in order to aid comprehension. The book is thus suitable for training and educational purposes, and will help the reader who is unfamiliar with the subject acquire the necessary skills for successful interpretation and analysis of field data.One of the most important features of the book is that it fills the gap between field operations and research, in regard to proper management of reservoirs. The book also contains a computer program (FORTRAN language) which can be incorporated in existing software designed for reservoir evaluation; type curves generation, test design and interpretation, can be achieved by using this program.Petroleum engineers, reservoir engineers, petroleum geologists, research engineers and students in these fields, will be interested in this book as a reference source. It can also be used as a text book for training production and reservoir engineering professionals. It should be available in university and oil company libraries.

Book Pressure Transient Testing and Productivity Analysis for Horizontal Wells

Download or read book Pressure Transient Testing and Productivity Analysis for Horizontal Wells written by Yueming Cheng and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work studied the productivity evaluation and well test analysis of horizontal wells. The major components of this work consist of a 3D coupled reservoir/wellbore model, a productivity evaluation, a deconvolution technique, and a nonlinear regression technique improving horizontal well test interpretation. A 3D coupled reservoir/wellbore model was developed using the boundary element method for realistic description of the performance behavior of horizontal wells. The model is able to flexibly handle multiple types of inner and outer boundary conditions, and can accurately simulate transient tests and long-term production of horizontal wells. Thus, it can serve as a powerful tool in productivity evaluation and analysis of well tests for horizontal wells. Uncertainty of productivity prediction was preliminarily explored. It was demonstrated that the productivity estimates can be distributed in a broad range because of the uncertainties of reservoir/well parameters. A new deconvolution method based on a fast-Fourier-transform algorithm is presented. This new technique can denoise "noisy" pressure and rate data, and can deconvolve pressure drawdown and buildup test data distorted by wellbore storage. For cases with no rate measurements, a "blind" deconvolution method was developed to restore the pressure response free of wellbore storage distortion, and to detect the afterflow/unloading rate function using Fourier analysis of the observed pressure data. This new deconvolution method can unveil the early time behavior of a reservoir system masked by variable-wellbore-storage distortion, and thus provides a powerful tool to improve pressure transient test interpretation. The applicability of the method is demonstrated with a variety of synthetic and actual field cases for both oil and gas wells. A practical nonlinear regression technique for analysis of horizontal well testing is presented. This technique can provide accurate and reliable estimation of well-reservoir parameters if the downhole flow rate data are available. In the situation without flow rate measurement, reasonably reliable parameter estimation can be achieved by using the detected flow rate from blind deconvolution. It has the advantages of eliminating the need for estimation of the wellbore storage coefficient and providing reasonable estimates of effective wellbore length. This technique provides a practical tool for enhancement of horizontal well test interpretation, and its practical significance is illustrated by synthetic and actual field cases.

Book Explicit Deconvolution of Wellbore Storage Distorted Well Test Data

Download or read book Explicit Deconvolution of Wellbore Storage Distorted Well Test Data written by Olivier Bahabanian and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analysis/interpretation of wellbore storage distorted pressure transient test data remains one of the most significant challenges in well test analysis. Deconvolution (i.e., the "conversion" of a variable-ratedistorted pressure profile into the pressure profile for an equivalent constant rate production sequence) has been in limited use as a "conversion" mechanism for the last 25 years. Unfortunately, standard deconvolution techniques require accurate measurements of flow-rate and pressure - at downhole (or sandface) conditions. While accurate pressure measurements are commonplace, the measurement of sandface flowrates is rare, essentially non-existent in practice. As such, the "deconvolution" of wellbore storage distorted pressure test data is problematic. In theory, this process is possible, but in practice, without accurate measurements of flowrates, thisprocess can not be employed. In this work we provide explicit (direct) deconvolution of wellbore storagedistorted pressure test data using only those pressure data. The underlying equations associated with eachdeconvolution scheme are derived in the Appendices and implemented via a computational module. The value of this work is that we provide explicit tools for the analysis of wellbore storage distorted pressure data; specifically, we utilize the following techniques: * Russell method (1966) (very approximate approach), * "Beta" deconvolution (1950s and 1980s), * "Material Balance" deconvolution (1990s). Each method has been validated using both synthetic data and literature field cases and each method should be considered valid for practical applications. Our primary technical contribution in this work is the adaptation of various deconvolution methods for the explicit analysis of an arbitrary set of pressure transient test data which are distorted by wellbore storage - without the requirement of having measured sandface flowrates.

Book Novel  Integrated and Revolutionary Well Test Interpretation and Analysis

Download or read book Novel Integrated and Revolutionary Well Test Interpretation and Analysis written by Freddy Escobar and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The TDS technique is a practical, easy, and powerful tool for well test interpretation. It uses characteristic features and points found on the pressure derivative versus time plot, so that reservoir parameters can be easily calculated by using several analytic expressions. Most calculations can be verified more than once and applied to systems where the conventional straight-line method has no applications. This book deals with well tests run in elongated systems, partially completed/penetrated wells, multirate tests, hydraulically fractured wells, interference tests, and naturally fractured reservoirs. This technique is used in all commercial well-testing software. Its use is the panacea for well test interpretation and can also be extended to rate-transient analysis, although not shown here.
